We
gave up on getting into Canada anytime soon, so we decided to explore MT. We
visited the ghost towns of Garnet and Granite on our way to Bozeman. We looked
at several condos near Bozeman, but I didn’t care for the area. Not enough
trees for me. I did like the area around Helena, and Pat found a mobile home
there that looked nice. We decided to check it out. The home looked in pretty
good shape, so we put a contract on it.

We headed south and toured the ghost towns of Virginia City
and Nevada City before heading into Craters of the Moon NM in Idaho. Near Twin
Falls, we visited Shoshone Falls and watched BASE jumpers leap from the Perrine
Bridge. This was near where Evil Knievel attempted to blast across the Snake
River Canyon in a steam powered rocket in 1974. (Spoiler alert: He didn’t make
it, but only broke his nose).
